However, it was too late to retreat now.
The other party had already arrived in front of him. The wind brought by the halberd was so strong that he could not breathe.
Mustang mustered all his strength, circulating all the zhenqi in his body. He brandished the sword in his hand, hoping to block this fatal strike.
However…
“呯!”
The sound of a weapon breaking entered his ears.
Mustang's eyes were wide open, his face as pale as paper, his pupils contracting.
Mustang's throat turned hoarse as he looked at the flying sword. The shadow of death instantly enveloped his entire body, causing Mustang to feel as if his heart was about to split apart.
"No!"
As soon as the hoarse voice came out, he felt the world spin.
At the same time, the entire world began to slowly lose its color. In the last moment of losing consciousness, he saw a headless corpse falling from a warhorse.
With their commander killed, the remaining 3,000 bandit troops were nothing more than a pile of loose sand.
As for the Golden Fire Cavalry, they were worthy of being the elite troops that terrified the Six Nations. With just a few more charges, the 3,000-strong enemy was already slaughtered.
Some died, some fled!
After another round of killing, the entire battlefield calmed down.
After giving his orders to the soldiers, Meng Yi immediately rode to Ying Zixuan's carriage.
"The enemy has been completely annihilated. Ninth Young Master, you're shocked!”
Ying Zi Xuan lifted the curtain and looked at the tiger general covered in the enemy's blood. A hint of admiration flashed across his handsome face.
"General Meng, 800 against 3,000, beheading the enemy commander. The general's bravery is not inferior to your father and brother!”
"Young Master, you flatter me!" When Meng Yi heard Ying Zixuan's praise, he said," This is all because of the bravery of our Great Qin soldiers. It's not Meng Yi's work alone.”
When Ying Zixuan heard these words, the admiration in his eyes became even denser.
He was not greedy for merit, and he was so protective of his soldiers.
This Meng Yi was indeed worthy of being called a disciple of the Meng family's General of Generals. He was indeed a rare talent.
"Ninth Young Master, I just received the information from the captives!”The enemy's background was of great importance, so Meng Yi didn't dare to delay. After confirming Ying Zixuan's safety, he immediately reported. "It has been confirmed that this is not a border bandit rebellion, but the troops of the Yuwen clan of the Great Tang.”
"Mustang, the commander of this rebel army that I killed, was a commander under Yuwen Shiji.”
" The Yuwen clan's army!" When Ying Zixuan heard this, there wasn't the slightest bit of surprise on his face." Only these people?”
"What?" Meng Yi didn't understand what Ying Zixuan meant.
In his opinion, if he knew that the border bandits were disguised as the troops of the Great Tang's King of Wei, Yuwen, Ying Zixuan would be shocked.
However, he didn't expect the Ninth Young Master to not be surprised at all. Instead, he asked a question that even he couldn't understand at the moment.
What did he mean by 'there are only so many people'?
What was the meaning of this?
Could there be something else?
Just as Meng Yi was feeling puzzled, a soldier suddenly galloped over.
"Report…Ninth Young Master, General!"
"The scouts at the front have reported that an elite troop has been discovered in the southeast direction. The army is orderly and powerful. They are currently rapidly approaching our army and are less than twenty li away from us. A conservative estimate is about 30,000!"
"What?!"
Meng Yi's expression changed drastically.
He suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Ying Zixuan.
Seeing Ying Zixuan's calm expression, Meng Yi's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that the Ninth Young Master had already guessed it?
Could this be the 'other' that the Ninth Young Master was referring to?
At this moment, Meng Yi's heart was filled with doubt. He suddenly realized that he could not understand this Ninth Young Master at all.
He really wanted to ask the question in his heart, but with the enemy in front of him, Meng Yi knew what was important.
"Young Master, Meng Yi will take his leave first!"
Meng Yi asked for instructions and prepared to face the enemy again.
"Wait!" Ying Zi Xuan called out to him and walked out of the carriage. He stretched his back," I'll go take a look with General Meng!”
Hearing this, Meng Yi panicked.
"Young Master, you can't!"
"Why not?" Ying Zixuan asked back.
"I don't know if the people coming from the front are friends or foes. If the young master was an enemy, Meng Yi would not be able to protect the young master in time.”
Meng Yi's expression was slightly anxious.
"Don't worry, General Meng. There are martial arts experts on my side who can protect my safety!”
"Young Master, please return to the carriage first.”Meng Yi was still worried as he cupped his fists at Ying Zixuan and said," With Great Qin's cavalry here, Meng Yi will definitely be able to kill the enemies. At that time, Young Master could go and take a breather.”
Meng Yi said. However, Ying Zixuan had already made up his mind, so Meng Yi naturally couldn't dissuade him.
In the end, he could only helplessly agree to let Ying Zi Xuan go with him, but he solemnly warned Ying Zi Xuan not to leave his side.
After a while, the second batch of scouts brought back more detailed information.
The army was from the Yuwen clan, and judging from their flag, they were the direct troops of Yuwen Huaji, the king of the Yuwen clan.
The commander flag of the middle army indicated that the commander was Yuwen Huaji.
